My journey through a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction

So the last time I posted, I was telling you all how tired I was. Yes, I am still exhausted, shattered would probably be a better term, but I got a break today. I work with a very amazing group of people. Sometimes, when patient census is lower and we have a lot of nurses working we get flexed down (people get the option to go home early, if no one volunteers, we have a list that shows who is next). Well today, my co-workers were nice enough to let me be the one who got to leave work early. It was so considerate of them because oh my goodness do I need a nap and my body needs a break.

Its amazing what the human body can do when you just tell yourself you have to. I am amazed with myself everyday at how far I have come. My body has been through so much, but I did it. I still have a long way to go, I know this, and I need to keep that in mind, but with people looking out for me at work like they do, I don’t have to stress so much about staying afloat.

Thank you ladies for letting me be the one that was able to leave work to come home and rest. I appreciate your kindness more than you know.
